OK, perhaps not.  But your Java interface would need to be callable
from C++, which is really the only way to connect compiled code to
Octave.  The "C, Fortran, or other languages" statement was written
with the idea that those other languages would be callable from C++,
not that there were necessarily simple ways to call those other
languages directly from Octave.  OTOH, you have the source, so you can
make it do whatever.
